I found what I was looking for at www.all-rite.com, you can download their catalog. FYI, what I was referring to was the #200 vinyl cap on page 30 and M51 aluminum strip on page

It is an older Coachmen, 1994 Santara

If cost is a huge issue, I would find the leak source, and then add more of a similar product, until you are willing and ready to remove the top and start over - only way to truly fix is to remove it and replace.

Hello, I am looking to replace some of the exterior trim on my C. It has a horizontal seam trim that is only an adhesive backed strip, about 3/4" wide. It does (or did) cover a seam of the filon from front to rear. It is factory installed. Has anybody replaced this or use an alternative product...

Thanks, that is it. I should have thought about Rockler. I have ordered some jigs from them in the past. - Dan

Thanks for the input. I did forget to mention it was a 60" sofa. Thanks now I know it is a jack knife sofa.

Hello, I am looking at re-doing the Laminate counters. I can re-build the tops myself, however I am looking for  source or trade name for the edge molding used to trim out the counters and possibly the cabinets. It is usually a vinyl T -Type molding that is pushed into a routed reveal on the...

I am in the process of recovering the sofa/bed in my Class C. It is not a pull-out (like residential), but rather the type that lays flat and becomes a "bed" (I don't know the exact name of this style). Does anybody know approx. how many SF of fabric I would need? Has anybody done this? Thanks Dan

It sounds like a lot of folks earlier (like 2 yrs earlier) on in this tread were having their Rv seats replaced with seats from some of the actual RV seat supplier, Lisa had mentioned using BMW seats, while I agree they are comfy - I don't think they would look quite right  - maybe too sporty...

Thanks for the quick response! I will try later to hold button and see if it works. I hope the new antenna has the booster in it. Then check to see if there is power at the antenna coax.

Hi, trying to get my antenna going, but first things first. I am not sure my booster is working. I bought a booster (I think I bought the right thing) It is a wingard coax plate that is 12v powered and has the small button and led indicator - nothing else. I hooked it up and push the button. It...

Thanks Bill, I have decided on the aluminum. I have a couple friends that are sheet metal guys, so I will be seeking their help for the install. So I should be able to get any roll, breaks etc. done if necessary. The bends on my cab are pretty large so I may not need it. Well see. I will be...

Just an FYI, I found today at Home Depot, in the roofing section, a product from Lanco that is 4" seaming tape suitable for EPDM roofs on RV's. It looks exactly like the eternabond roll I just bought. It is the grey butyl stuff - not the peel & seal or tyvek products. They also offer a "Ultra...

I have begun the massive cab-over rebuild. I was delighted to find the walls (at least the cab-over) are constructed of aluminum 1.5 x 1 boxed tubing. So I will be reinforcing the framing over the next few days. I would love to create some custom corner molding like the "memory roads" RV - we'll...

Yes, I have learned this. Now I am trying to source filon or an alternative. I see Owens Coring has a product CTEC. Well see...
